INSPIRE Me: Danielle Paige

I really believe that the energy we put out into the world comes back to us. Well… I guess I must be doing SOMETHING right to have so many wonderful, talented, generous people to brighten my world, enliven my spirit, and make me a better person for knowing them. SO. In an effort to “pay it forward”, I am going to pass my good fortune on to YOU, and create a blog series called “INSPIRE me” to introduce you to one of these incredible people each installment. I hope you enjoy their talents and gifts and spirit as much as I have!

Happy Campers

2012 has been the year of saying “YES” to life.  for me…. so much of what I consider my yoga practice occurs miles and miles off my mat.  it occurs high above the ground on a flying trapeze, or miles into the ocean on a deep sea fishing adventure.  My practice manifests in a joyful […]

A Leap of Faith

I just finished re-reading “the alchemist”, a book which always touches my soul on a profound level…. reminding me that we are all capable of great & limitless miracles.  In my life, i have always done my very best to follow my heart.  Sometimes, this has caused a great deal more anguish than ecstasy, but […]

The MIRACLE Year
